<Feat Id="1243" Name="Animal Ally" Type="General">

  <prerequisites>Nature Soul, character level 4th, must not have an animal companion or mount that advances as an animal companion.</prerequisites>
  <prerequisite_feats>Nature Soul</prerequisite_feats>
  <benefit>You gain an animal companion as if you were a druid of your character level -3 from the following list badger, bird, camel, cat (small), dire rat, dog, horse, pony, snake (viper), or wolf. If you later gain an animal companion through another source (such as the Animal domain, divine bond, hunters bond, mount, or nature bond class features), the effective druid level granted by this feat stacks with that granted by other sources.</benefit>
